Okay as most of you know I graffted a set of 5th and 6th gen sideskirts together to get a side scoop on my lower side of the car. I am thinkin about maybe getting rid of them but am not 100% sure.. I really like them but think it might be too much with some of the other stuff I am doing.

I am looking for either 350 for them or to trade for a set of invader sideskirts plus 150 cash.

I spent 280 on the 5th gen sides alone.

They will need to be grafted onto the side of the vehicle to finish off the look of them. You may want to cut the side of the car to make the scoops functional or leave it just molded for a smooth look.

Like I said I am not sure yet if I want to get rid of them but am trying to see if anyone else is interested in them.

no photo yet

Thanks

I'm DEFINITELY interested in them.
What you have done is exactly what I want to do.
However, can you ship to France?

It might almost be cheaper for you to pay to have a shop do it for you.. I could inquire for shipping to france but its not gonna be cheap.

Importing is the cheapest way for me to do things.
Just tooooo expensive to consider buying here in France and then having the work done.

I was considering buying 1 set of each in the US, having them sent to someone on the board who was prepared to do the work for me and then ship to me.

So, if you decide to sell them, I'd like first refusal.
Let me know what shipping would be anyway.

Cheers.

BTW: For anyone reading this, if this goes through, I'll have a set of '97 red oem sideskirts for sale.

here is a photo of what they looked like while I was still fitting them.. this is not what the finished product looks like but more a ruff of it

Im probably gonna keep them but still not sure... I like how they look in person but in photos im not sure about it but all the photos I have is with the motor outta the car so the car sits funny.. once I have the GT4 hood and I modifly the front airdam I will be able to make a desion on it

[/QUOTE]Hey neverstop...how did you make the sideskirts? [QUOTE]

I took my 6th gen invader sideskirts and grafted the scoop off of a set of 5th gen invader sideskirts.. the yellow section is all that I used of the 5th gen ones... had alot of excess skirt left over smile.gif I had to trim the 6th gen ones a little on the back to make it fit flush but it worked out pretty well and the finished product looks damn good.

I fiberglassed it together... I used all of the 6th gen side with just a minor bit of cutting to the very top back and then trimed down the 5th on until I had just the scoop section and glassed them together.
